State Senator John Liu came by the school with the INCREDIBLY GENEROUS gift of backpacks and school supplies for the students in our SONYC after school program. THANK YOU!
What clubs are there in MS74? When do they meet? Who do I get in touch with to find out more?
This document will answer to all your questions.
On or before the 1st day of school for your child, please log into your New York City Schools Account (NYCSA) to access and complete 3 very important forms: Media Consent, Emergency Contacts, and Family Income Inquiry Form.
All 3 forms must be completed the first week of school.

From the US Department of Education Press release,
"This year's cohort of honorees demonstrates what is possible when committed educators and school leaders create vibrant, welcoming, and affirming school cultures where rich teaching and learning can flourish," said Secretary Cardona. "I commend all our Blue Ribbon honorees for working to keep students healthy and safe while meeting their academic, social, emotional, and mental health needs. In the face of unprecedented circumstances, you found creative ways to engage, care for, protect, and teach our children. Blue Ribbon Schools have so much to offer and can serve as a model for other schools and communities so that we can truly build back better."
